Reviews for Probation
“This edited volume draws its inspiration from a range of acknowledged international experts on probation and criminal justice and has as its ambitious aim to answer the question ‘what do we know about probation so far?’ … . This book is a welcome contribution to probation scholarship.” (Mike Guilfoyle, Probation Journal, Vol. 64 (2), 2017)
